This dataset provides projections of global rainfall erosivity changes, a critical metric representing the erosive force of rainfall that drives worldwide soil and nutrient loss. These maps serve as essential inputs for global and regional soil erosion assessment models. The collection details the geographical distribution of projected erosivity changes across two primary periods: 2010–2050 and 2050–2070. To account for different climate trajectories, the dataset includes models for three distinct Representative Concentration Pathway (RCP) scenarios for both timeframes: RCP 2.6 (stringent mitigation), RCP 4.5 (intermediate emissions), and RCP 8.5 (high emissions). By combining these temporal and climatic variables, users can evaluate and compare potential future soil erosion risks under varying degrees of global climate change.
